Clue #4 is Dogwood Star !

 Clue #4 is Dogwood Star!  This is a great block, I first used this block in Dogwood Lane .  This block is going to take lessons we've learned over the first few clues and put them together.   There is a slightly different fabric placement and trimming of the Octagon.  So pay attention.  Starflower Christmas - Clue #4 - Dogwood Star Curated KFC - Clue #4 - Dogwood Star Fabric Selection -  I recommend using the same Medium Diamond fabric from Clue #1.  For my Christmas selection, I went with a new Light fabric, because I had a place I want to use the remnant of the Light fabric I've been using to date.  For my Kaffe version, I went with the same Medium and Light as I used in Clue #1. Be very careful with fabric placement, I've switched things up a bit on this Block.  Starflower Christmas Curated KFC  Tips and Reminder Take your time making the Diamonds.  See Blog post for Clue #3 if you need some extra tips or reminders.

Such fun! Clue #3 is the Viaduct Wedge Star

 I love this block!  This is the the Viaduct Wedge Star, I originally design this block for my Grand Central Quilt which was a Mystery a couple years ago.  That pattern is scheduled to be released by year's end.   Anyway, I made some slight changes, one in size and two in replacing one of the corners with a Background Corner.    This block is really going to add some great movement in our quilt.  This block is made up of (4) Diamond Wedges, (4) Large Strip Pieced Wedges and (4) Corner Triangles.  We are going to make (4) of them.  Thank you! I wanted to take a moment and thank all of you for the kind words, cards, text, emails that you've send over the last few weeks as my family and I've dealt with the passing of my brother.  I really appreciate it.  I'm starting to feel a little bit more like myself each day.  I gratefully appreciate your patience and understanding. Let's talk this week's tips.   Fabric Select...
